This week’s episode features Adam Gaudry, a Métis scholar at the University of Alberta. Our conversation covered Louis Riel’s political role among the Métis, his legacy in the Manitoba Treaty, and the ways he has been invoked in nationalizing projects and narratives since his death.

Next week’s episode will feature conversations with cast and crew members from the original 1967 production of Louis Riel!
